Summary of the contracting process

Torbay Council has completed a procurement process titled "CAP25095 Seabury Hotel PM QS EA Consultancy" in the services industry category focused on consultancy for Project Manager, Quantity Surveyor, and Employers Agent roles. The process was conducted under a limited procurement method due to its below-threshold nature. The contract was awarded to Taylor Lewis Ltd and involves architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, with the work taking place in the region of UKK42, United Kingdom. The contract was signed on 1st August 2025 and will run until 31st July 2028, with a possible extension to 31st July 2029. The total contract value is £44,994, and it was part of a legal framework established by UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the consultancy services sector, specifically those with capabilities in project management, quantity surveying, and related areas. Taylor Lewis Ltd, an SME based in Exeter, has successfully demonstrated how smaller firms can compete effectively in such tenders, particularly those with expertise in the specified service areas. Businesses looking to expand within the architectural and engineering consultancy sphere would find this type of contracting opportunity valuable for growth and expansion, especially when collaborating with sub-central government authorities like Torbay Council, which provides extensive scope for delivering specialised services.
